K70RGB Problems

[starwarsguy99]

Hi, 

since yesterday my keyboard (K70RGB) has been having a few problems.. 

First a few of the keys are only able to light up in a light blue. 

Second, and the more annoying problem, about 20 minutes after I switch on my computer my keyboard starts loosing connection and reconnecting to my computer (over twice in a second. Accompanied by a really annoying windows error sound. Any game I would be in starts minimizing and reopening..). 

I updated the Corsair Utility Software and nothing fixed it. After I restart my computer it is fine but after 20 minutes it starts having the problems again. 

 

Any help is welcome,

 

Thanks.

Use IO bit uninstaller and uninstall the utility then reinstall it

IO bit uninstaller should delete all old probably broken registry files and filest left behind by the normal uninstaller

It seems that after I uninstall the software the keyboard is fine, but once I reinstall it, it stops working..

Seems like running it without drivers is your best option

"Uninstall the Corsair driver. Uninstall the HID Keyboard windows driver. Let windows recover the basic driver. I fixed mouse issues like this. I also run my K70 without any extra drivers. I find it working better this way."

I have only uninstalled the Corsair driver and its working fine..

Oddly the RGB colour errors are gone, even though I set all the colours to red on the software..
